Mediafire actually takes down copyrighted material, unlike MU, which only removed the URLs linking to them. MF also doesn't go behind the fed's backs in their inter-office e-mails and say "Oh hey could you upload that 50 Cent track for me plzkthx"

I'm saying, we don't know if the MF staff does that or not.

Employees send each other e-mails saying things like, “can u pls get me some links to the series called ‘Seinfeld’ from MU [Megaupload]," since some employees did have access to a private internal search engine.

MF. Mediafire, not Megaupload. Maybe you should try reading instead?

They've been planning that for a while. The music video that kicked off this series of events was promoting it.

Got linked to this.

And couldn't agree much more to anything else anyone could ever hope to write.

Also I bought his new album which has Still alive and Want you gone as well as 16 other songs on it for $10 directly from his homepage. Just goes to show that he is speaking the truth.
Make good stuff, make it easy to buy. Don't be an asshole if there are people pirating cause you can't possibly know how much of that is actual damage to your profits.
I like this guy.

JC is a great person. His position is the position most people share, I would hope.
